I discovered a blog today written by Ron Robins, a British-born Canadian MBA who is advancing the cause of "
enlightened economics." (The site has been added to the blog roll on the right.)
His stated purpose is to "create a discussion in formulating a practical economics that integrates consciousness, natural law, and free-market theory." In other words, he advocates a new way of thinking about economics, and how we measure our economic health as a society.
He discusses topics such as
voluntary simplicity,
long-term economic thinking,and
retiring the GDP, and alternatives to the
U.S. Consumer Price Index. He predicts that "
Cultural Creatives" will dominate the new economy.
A lot of food for thought and discussion.
